First off, these shorts are insanely comfortable. You do not need to wear anything underneath them. My only complaint was that I bought them for running in the summer, but they are a little on the thicker side of shorts. If high breathability is what you want, then these may not be for you.They fit great and stand up to a beatingATTENTION SHORT SKINNY KINGS: you have found THE shorts. If you are a man with a 27 inch waist has searched far and wide for a pair of XS shorts, search no more. You no longer need to settle for Fabletics XS shorts that fit like a M. You no longer need to spend $70-100 per pair of shorts at Lululemon (seemingly the only retailer with XS sizes). These will do. Are they perfect? No, not at all. They’re too long. Why does the inseam of shorts stay the same as the size increases? It doesn’t make any sense. They XS shorts should definitely be like shorter. Why is the outside of the shorts so simple and sophisticated while the liner patterned like the items of the Walmart clearance section from 2010? I, again, could not tell. Why are the nice colors (light grey, white, seersucker, slate) always sold out? Probably because there is nowhere else to purchase XS shorts in this country built on McDonalds and Coca-cola.Mmagic - please make more XS shorts. And please shorten the length just a little. It will almost definitely pay off in the long run as word makes it’s way to the short skinny men message boards where we collectively gather to discuss where we can possibly find clothes that properly fit us. There is a market.We all want Chubbies (wait what?) but we also know that one pair of Chubbies will take about 60 cans of Pabst Blue Ribbon out of your cooler. Can you afford to be out of beer for 10 days? Well, they are pretty cool shorts.These maamgic "Star" shorts are a nice knockoff version of the Chubbies Danger Zones. maamgic? Sounds like they were deciding on a company name after 60 cans of Pabst.Bottom line - the maamgic shorts are pretty comfortable. Even though they're short, the inner liner (like a pair of boxer briefs) and shell of the shorts both STRETCH which doesn't restrict movement. Honestly, I was super surprised how comfortable they are. Just the right about of stretch that still feels secure in the pool, in the ocean, and on runs. And the polyester material is very smooth. They describe it as buttery. I agree. Nice touch adding the American Flag theme underneath...wait they stole that idea.Sizing. That's the tough thing about Chinese brands. Demographics and models for sizing are different in each country. I'm 5'10" and 170 lbs with a 33 inch waist. No beer gut ironically with my beer choice. And, on their listing they say I should be a Large. But, I went with customer reviews advising others to order normally, and I did. The size Medium fit great around the waist - just like standard US sizing. Only thing that is snug is around the hips but the stretch helps with comfort. I don't think the sizing is off on the hips, I think it's just better described as slim fit. If you wear slim fit, order normally.I use my maamgic shorts (maybe they tried to say "magic" while eating peanut butter) 3 times a week for running, and I just hop in the pool right after. No need to change. Then just wring them out, flip out the inner shorts, and let it try overnight.Durability? I washed them a few times already, and they've survived. Don't see any fading from the chlorine in the pool and I haven't popped any seams. For just a little over $30 - it's a good deal for 2-in-1 athletic shorts when compared to any major brand. Sure, I'll buy more.My son loves Chubbies but they are so expensive, so I got these to try instead. He loves them just as much!! Size small fit him perfect.Best shorts for $32. Wouldn’t want to spend my money else where. Fit great. Draw string on the inside. Zipper pocket. Front pocket divider. It’s awesomepretty impressed with these shorts - the sizing is wacky, though. i usually wear a medium but ordered a large. glad i did. they fit great. only complaint is it appears the liner is sewn in wrong side out, i notice it, but i doubt anyone else would. not sure if that’s a flaw in all of them, or just mine!My son ordered these a few times to get the correct size but they were really short and tight.
